Year 2017 is already off to a good start… a warm welcome to all our readers from Electronics Cooling!
As electronics continue to pervade all walks of our lives, thermal management remains front and center as one of the important enablers in product realization. At the risk of repeating myself, I must say that there has never been a better time than the present to be an electronics thermal management engineer/designer! To that end, Electronics Cooling is hard at work bringing you relevant articles and news updates that span the entire ecosystem of electronics thermal management.
As you witnessed over the last few months, we have implemented many changes and improvements to our web portal. Our coverage of electronics thermal management technologies now spans across multiple disciplines –from physical sciences to biosciences and medical. Our website is now much easier to navigate, the contents are well-categorized for easier browsing and we allow moderated user comments. We encourage you to make it interactive, feel free to comment under blog articles. Better yet, if you have any topics or suggestions for blogs, feel free to contribute! We are looking for blogs with a minimum of 600 words and as many figures / images as needed. You can contact the Technical Editor at: MP@electronics-cooling.com.
